Republicans in the battleground states of Michigan and Arizona are paying a high price for their full-throated support of former President Donald Trump and his lie that the 2020 election was stolen from him.

Not paying a high enough price, though.
I can’t think of a greater price to pay actually. Losing donors and cash is (hopefully) a precursor to losing voters and mindshare. There’s no better punishment than being utterly forgotten, relegated to the dustbin of history.
I can dream, right?
No, we cannot allow the current rise of fascism to be forgotten. We must be vigilant against it, always. Reminded that a slow burn of low-grade shit suddenly becomes a wildfire if you ignore it.
I just hope there is an opportunity to remember this as a near loss of democracy in this country, instead of a time we actually lost it.
